Darkness Hating Light Practices a Kind of Separation Different Than What God Requires
Separation occurs for many reasons. Thirteen men pick up ten players to run full court basketball with three left on the sidelines. Susie is socially awkward so she isn’t invited to the party.

2 John 7-11: Case Study or Comprehensive?
Between truth and hospitality, truth is the priority. Hospitality is essentially unity. You are welcoming. Come on in. Be with us. Stay with us. Cooperate with us. Associate with us. You can’t have love without the truth. Love is the truth. Love is walking in the truth toward God and other people. It is fulfilling […]
Ann Taylor, Wear the Pants Campaign: The World Gets It, Just Like It Gets Rock Music
I don’t know women’s clothing brands, but a friend texted this ad. The world knows what pants mean, just like Dockers in its “Wear the Pants” campaign in 2009. The only people who deny that pants mean anything are professing Christians. Pants are the male symbol, just like the skirt or dress is female. The […]
Modest & Gender Distinct Swimwear
Not that long ago, my wife and I had the opportunity to visit Jamaica, where we enjoyed the beauty of God’s creation and were refreshed in the middle of our long Wisconsin winter. We recognize that there is no basis whatsoever for saying that God’s standards of modesty change when one is near a body […]
God-Given Rights: A Crucial Denial of a Foundation of Conservatism at National Review
At National Review, a self-professing bastion of conservatism, Jonah Goldberg, one of its most well known, talented, and prominent contributors, writes of the Suicide of the West, beginning with these two paragraphs: Let’s begin with some somewhat unusual assertions for these pages.

Separation Is An Indispensable Message You Should Pick Up from the Whole Bible, But Let’s Start with Genesis
After the curse, you’ve got two chapters in Genesis chronicling about 1700 years, chapters 4 and 5. An explanation for the flood is the godly line adjoining with the ungodly line (6:2), producing an ungodly one. God preserved a godly line by separating it, Noah and his family, from the ungodly one. That’s the message […]

Jordan Peterson: The Lowering Standard of Acceptance
By the testimony of many varied substantial sources, Jordan Peterson is the most popular public intellectual in the world right now, if not just all English speaking people.

Friends of Israel (FOI), the organization, and Israel My Glory (IMG), its publication, both have talked a lot about the rapture through the years and do again in a recent edition of the latter. David Levy, the FOI Director of Education and Ministry Relations, writes in “The Rapture”: The Rapture of the church is a major doctrine in Scripture […]
